Installing Gluster Management Gateway Backend Packages

Gluster Management Gateway communicates with every node of your cluster using the backend package. This package must be installed on each and every node of your cluster using the Linux package (e.g. rpm for CentOS) published by Gluster.

The minimum requirements for installing the backend package:

chkconfig
python = > 2.4.3
perl = > 5.8.8
rrdtool-perl = > 1.2.27
appliance-base = >1.3 (published by Gluster)
sudo
crontabs

To install the backend packages on each and every node of your cluster run the following command:

# rpm -ivh cluster glustermg-backend-1.0.0-1.x86_64.rpm

Note: In case CIFS only, the Samba services must be configured to run on port 445 which needs to be enabled and open on all the storage servers in your cluster.
